Take our vs. home cooked meals

For some reason take out is SO much more appetizing to me these days. I have always loved to cook but my own meals are not appealing to me. I could eat take out every night if we could afford it! Anyone else?

Re: Take our vs. home cooked meals

Im not terribly domestic. I dont really enjoy cooking. We will have to in order to cut down on some expenses now, but we do go out or bring in more than we probably should.

Re: Take our vs. home cooked meals

I'm in total agreement. I also love to cook, but these days I just feel too wiped out at the end of a workday to bother. I would LOVE to get take out every night!

Re: Take our vs. home cooked meals

i love to cook but most of the stuff i love to make i can't stomach right now, especially chicken, which is the easiest thing to make. i am trying to be creative but we eat pasta more than i'd like to admit we definitely stay away from take out as much as possible though to save money.

Re: Take our vs. home cooked meals

Early on, all I wanted was fast food. For the last few weeks, I've been trying to be good and eating more home-cooked and healthier meals.

We tend to eat at home 4-5 nights a week, we usually have pizza on Friday and then weekends we're usually out with friends at restaurants.

I was like that too! I normally love to cook but during the pregnancy I had no desire and would wait until I was starving to even think about food. And at that point....take out was easiest.

Re: Take our vs. home cooked meals

i am the same way! i cook for DH and I.. and i just cant stomach it.. i almost dont want to eat any of it.. but take out is a different story.. i can eat it no problem

Re: Take our vs. home cooked meals

nope, I'm still home-cooking girl.... I WILL say, though, that the super complicated meals I used to make regularly are too much for me now, and I'm tapering down to more quick dishes....

I'm tired too

Re: Take our vs. home cooked meals

I am the same way! It is so tiring to cook and there are so many tasty options on my block! I am trying to hold back though, because I know take out is very salty and I have been retaining fluid.

Re: Take our vs. home cooked meals

I hate to cook, so I could go for take out always if money were no object.

Re: Take our vs. home cooked meals
